Family member of a Finn and income requirement

Post by shebela33 » Mon Mar 07, 2016 11:53 am

Hello everyone,

I have a question concerning who is considered a close family member according to Finnish law. Does the father of a child who lives in a separate household to the child considered as a family member of the child or at least a close relative? The parents of the child are divorced and they share custody. The child lives primarily with the mother.
I am asking this because I saw on migri website that a close relative or a family member of Finnish citizen is exempted from income requirement to bring a family member to Finland. Here is the link,

My child is a Finnish citizen and I was wondering if I could be exempted from the income requirement to bring my wife to Finland according to the info on migri website.

Best wishes everybody and have a productive week.
